Like I said I have a lot of requests that go unfilled. I only made 3 lb today and it still takes a lot of time over multiple days... But well worth itMy son makes jerky on his Trager. It takes him 4 days to prepare, first day slicing the meat, then 24 hours to marinate, another day drying on the Trager, one day coolig and putting nto Ziploc bags. 30 minutes for family and friends to eat it all! LOL
